Soldered mini rocker to metal band inside light (all metal pieces are easily removed)
This shows the cut-out in the light housing for the switch, metal band installed, and the crapload of plastic I had to remove from the inside. Note the bent power tab on the switch. I soldered that directly to the incoming power source
Ready to put the cover on
Plug it in and try it out..................
Shazam! It works. I mean, of course it does. There ya go. I don't have the time or ambition to put a pic of every step up here, but be creative. I was thinking of a cab switch, which would alleviate switch-in-housing clearance issues, but this is more convenient.Also, I didn't hook up the ground because I could give a sh1t if the switch lights up. This isn't a hella cool horsepower rock-crushing ball-squeezing spit-on-granny type of upgrade, I guess. Just functional. Lemme know what you guys think.
